Фотозавино 18 (Photographs For Wine) was a project carried out throughout February '18 in Kyiv, Ukraine.

Trying to rattle my creativity awake from the winter sleep and challenge myself (as a live music photographer I rarely take pure portraits), I offered people short photo sessions on Kyiv's symbolic locations. Those wanting to participate could thank me with a bottle of wine.

People and cities, as well as people in cities are one of my favorite subjects in photography. Lacking warm feelings for the city I live in, through this project I wanted to learn to love Kyiv the way I probably should.
